Is it bad to network now? Should I wait?

Ive seen a comment saying to wait till a few weeks after Christmas before networking again. Wanted to create a thread to get more insight on this topic. Is it unacceptable to network this week and next? Would it be better to wait a few weeks due to holidays?
